My take is this - In order to win and defeat Brown, the candidate is going to have to be an anti-political class person. He is going to have to get a groundswell of popular support for ending the over-regulation and over-taxation that the so-called experienced politicians have subjected us to.
If a Tea Party supported Republican were to win the nomination, it would be a conservative vs. a progressive general election, the people vs. the politicians. I’d like to see it. If Whitman or Poizner are chosen, then it progressive light vs. progressive heavy. We’ve seen what happens in those races.
Yes, And I can agree with most of what you’ve stated...but a ground swell of people for a conservative won’t be enough for those who are looking for someone with a history of accomplishments...which means the are effective. It needs to be looked at as whoever gets to run has to have the ability to take on the job that Calif will surely require.
